Silver Diner Kid's Night

We had a great time last night at Silver Diner's Kid's Night. The petting zoo/pony rides were there. There were 16 of us that showed up and it was great to catch up with some "old" friends and their children.

Breakfast Fun!

This morning I decided to make breakfast fun and cut Mari and Xavier's names out of pancakes and they LOVED it!

Family fun in the snow!!!

We had another small (6") snow storm on Saturday, so we took advantage of it to go sledding, build a snowman and make snow angles!

My Princess

IPODS

My sister got Mari and Xavier each an Ipod (or an MP3 player) for Christmas and last night I finally uploaded music onto it. Mari and Xavier LOVED them. They each put theirs on a sang and danced until it was time for bed. Xavier wanted to sleep with his but I told him he couldn't. He went to bed and got up about 25 minutes later and said "Mama, can I listen to Mamma Mia one more time?" I could not resist his cuteness and I said yes.
